French Creek RV Custer, SD

Custer, SD  46º - to get to 38º tonight and scattered rain tomorrow with 47º high.

Have taken some 700 photos - we were in Whiting, IA last Sunday night.  Visited cousin Donna Weiting and her husband Maynard and their daughter Dorsey and Granddaughter Monday noon in Watertown, SD.  Stayed that night at Campground in Desmet, SD where we toured Laura Engalls Wilder buildings on Tuesday.  High winds Sunday and Monday and very poor GPM on the truck pulling the travel trailer.  Winds down on Tuesday and Wednesday.  Stayed in campground right on Missouri River in Pierre, SD about half-mile from the Capital.  Toured the Capital and drove around both Pierre and Fort Pierre looking at sites of Lewis & Clark as well as the Oahoe Dam and lake.  Rode the recumbent trikes about 5 miles on bike trail right on the Missouri River.  Today we drove from Pierre to Custer, SD -- spent several hours in Wall, SD at Wall Drug and surrounding area.  Have 3 nights in French Creek RV Park only couple blocks from main street in town.  Walked a little over a mile tonight on the main street, both east and west after we ate supper at the trailer.  Intend to be at Crazy Horse Monument by 7:30 am tomorrow, hoping to get in as much thee and at Mount Rushmore before or between the rains.

Will post pictures as I have time.  Tonight is first campground with WIFI so have taken advantage of reading on it for about 3 hours now.  To bed and on with things tomorrow.
Later, Lynn
